Description

Using blogs, videos, and social media campaigns, I have created engaging content on complex topics like algae research, the circular economy and EU policy.

My background in ecology and skills at managing EU-funded projects (15+ international partners) enables me to communicate highly technical information, use analytics, and do small-talk with any European (just talk about food). Based in Ghent, I have worn many hats: researcher, online course creator, communication strategist, content creator, and newsletter writer.

When I'm not working, you’ll catch me with her nose in a book, geeking out over TV shows, or (weather permitting) paddling through Ghent's beautiful waterways.
